# Chapter 15. Not really KDE-related, but frequently asked nevertheless :-)

# 15.1. How do I change the screen resolution?

Use Ctrl-Alt-'+' and Ctrl-Alt-'-' to cycle among the resolutions you have defined in /etc/XF86Config (maybe under /etc/X11/ instead--poke around first). If you prefer to get your hands dirty, you can always edit the file directly. By placing your favourite resolution at the beginning (or making it the only one listed), X will always start up with that resolution.
